Was thinking more like Dykes as an example, but yeah, Thorman hasn't been good has he.

Calderwood, Dykes, Thorman.
Good to know we're not alone

No quote from Long there about anything to do with Wigan!

although i did get told we offered him a deal.

I was 50/50 on signing him but at least now we can all rest safe in the knowledge that we won't ever have to clap/cheer anything that tool does

You did offer him a deal and a very good one, and your chairman and Mr Noble and a couple of players visited him on Sunday but he had been talking to Hull for a while and decided on sticking with them!

Calderwood's been one of our best players this year (albeit not a very hard task )

Lenagan only gets back from Australia today according to our local paper so that doesn't work out!

I've no doubts we offered him a deal though as i've been told that by a good friend of his but think it's best for everybody that he's decided against it.

I wouldn't have been one but alot of other fans at Wigan just wouldn't have settled for it.

I think he snubbed Wakey and Hudds, there has been no confirmation he received an offer from Wigan

I don't think anybody knows 100% that he did but if he did i'd guess it must come down to being offered less money then what Hull or giving him or the fact that he'd get hell of the majority of fans here at Wigan.
